Friday Finds

A
few of the wow moments, or things I discover each week that tickle my
fancy. I hope that they may inspire or tickle yours too!

Free Printable Reindeer for the table or mantle, or whatever. Found on Fuxia Atelier.

I love this little Burlap Reindeer Ornament, don't you? It's really easy to make too. Found on Inch of Creativity.

DIY Snowman Mugs. So cute! I think they are just adorable. They'd be lovely with a hot chocolate mix in a baggie inserted and then given as a gift along with a candy cane stir stick. Found on Sew Sweet Vintage.

I would never have thought of this. These are wine glasses turned upside down. How often do you see a single wine glass in a charity shop etc. This is a great repurpose. And you wouldn't have to do snowmen. You could personalize them to any holiday at all. I can see hearts for valentines day, or even a keep the glass clear and put a winter vignette inside with little twinkle lights. Great idea! No source.

A fun Family Evening Tour of the local Christmas Lights, complete with round trip ticket and popcorn. What a brilliant idea. People don't go in for a lot of lights over here, but I know that they do in North America. This would be a lovely activity to do with the family. From Moments with My Miracles.

Let the kids decorate their own cardboard box gingerbread house. What a fun activity. A great way to keep them busy once school lets out for the holidays! From The Strickland Kids . Where or where was the internet when my own kids were growing up. I wish I had known all wof these great ideas then!

Hi, Marie! It's beginning to look a LOT like Christmas here! ;o) So lovely to catch up with you here post-travels. And thank you for your email--so happy to hear from you! :o) LOVE those Snowman Mugs and white wreath, the Merry Mail keeper, and not least those sweet trees made with cupcake liners--genius! Must go see about your Christmas Muffins... mmm... Happy Days, my friend ((LOVE & BIG HUGS))

Once again you find the neatest things! I just love the little reindeer and I'm going to make some this weekend out of cardstock to make them thicker for my mantle. Thanks Marie and Merry Christmas to you and Todd and puppy poo!

I loved all your ideas today. They were all a delight. I love seeing all the things you share. Finally I'm done with decorating and ready to start baking here. I'm going to start off with banana bread as I have some very ripe bananas to use up. Hope you have a fantastic Friday!

I was thinking of the alphabet boys with those jokes Monique! I am sure they would enjoy them! xxoo

Brenda, so happy you found something useful! Happy Christmas to you too! xoxo

Pam, I thought with your grandchildren there were a few things you might be able to use! I expect you will be babysitting or spending some time with them a lot over the next few weeks! I bake my next door neighbor a Banana bread every Christmas! xxoo

These finds are awesome. I am going to share them with my children. Thanks dear friend for all the research to find these. I am not crafty but I do have daughters and daughter in laws that are; so they will love these. My favorites were the wine glasses and the children's Christmas jokes. Blessings for these and love and hugs too.
